Seeking Light Podcast Beth Newell

God accomplishes his work through small things. While reading my scriptures, I was reminded of this very truth. Join me today as I share some thoughts about small groups.
Alma 37:
6 Now ye may suppose that this is foolishness in me; but behold I say unto you, that by small and simple things are great things brought to pass; and small means in many instances doth confound the wise.
7 And the Lord God doth work by means to bring about his great and eternal purposes; and by very small means the Lord doth confound the wise and bringeth about the salvation of many souls.

Three lessons I learned going to the Washington Family Ranch in Central Oregon.
Lesson # 1: God created this earth for you and I to fill his love and experience his goodness. 
D&C 59:
18 Yea, all things which come of the earth, in the season thereof, are made for the benefit and the use of man, both to please the eye and to gladden the heart;
19 Yea, for food and for raiment, for taste and for smell, to strengthen the body and to enliven the soul.
20 And it pleaseth God that he hath given all these things unto man
Lesson # 2: Even though we might be given mundane tasks to accomplish, there is a purpose and growth in these experiences.  
Lesson # 3: Continue to do good. There is so many good people in this world trying to do good things.

1 Nephi 14:12-14
12 And it came to pass that I beheld the church of the Lamb of God, and its numbers were few, because of the wickedness and abominations of the whore who sat upon many waters; nevertheless, I beheld that the church of the Lamb, who were the saints of God, were also upon all the face of the earth; and their dominions upon the face of the earth were small, because of the wickedness of the great whore whom I saw.
13 And it came to pass that I beheld that the great mother of abominations did gather together multitudes upon the face of all the earth, among all the nations of the Gentiles, to fight against the Lamb of God.
14 And it came to pass that I, Nephi, beheld the power of the Lamb of God, that it descended upon the saints of the church of the Lamb, and upon the covenant people of the Lord, who were scattered upon all the face of the earth; and they were armed with righteousness and with the power of God in great glory.
D & C 84:88
“88 ​And whoso ​​​receiveth​ you, there I will be also, for I will go ​​​before​ your face. I will be on your right hand and on your left, and my ​​​Spirit​ shall be in your hearts, and mine ​​​angels​ round about you, to bear you up.”

Ecclesiastes 3:
1 To every thing there is a ⁠season⁠, and a ⁠time⁠ to every purpose under the heaven:
2 A ⁠time⁠ to be born, and a time to ⁠die⁠; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
4 A time to weep, and a time to ⁠laugh⁠; a time to ⁠mourn⁠, and a time to dance;
5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
6 A time to ⁠get⁠, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
7 A time to ⁠rend⁠, and a time to sew; a time to keep ⁠silence⁠, and a time to speak;
8 A time to love, and a time to ⁠hate⁠; a time of war, and a time of peace.

This is a re-posted podcast from my archives! As I travel to spend time with my kids, I felt this podcast was perfect for our lives!! Thank you for supporting me. Enjoy!!! Today, while preparing for church I thought so much about personal peace during these times. Our opening hymn was Where Can I Turn For Peace. Many of us are seeking for peace. We have wars and commotion going on all around us but we can have personal peace. Peace comes through Jesus Christ and following his teachings. Join me today as I share some thoughts and light about peace.
John 16:33, “These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” 
A Pattern for Peace By Bishop W. Christopher Waddell Second Counselor in the Presiding Bishopric said, “The peace we all seek requires us to act—by learning of Jesus Christ, by listening to His words, and by walking with Him.”
